OSMC is freezing

Help and Support
1

Hi there,

I’ve just installed OSMC on my Raspberry Pi 3 but I cannot play any media located on my network drives on Windows 10 or on the SD Card.

This part below is not really relevant but it might be interesting too:

First of all, I wanted to mount with SMB but I keep having the same message “Operation not permitted”.

I’ve seen countless threads with this problem and I’ve tried a lot of manipulations, no luck from now. It seems that Samba is now restricted, and I tried to change with protocol v1, v2 and nothing relevant appeared. (it’s working perfectly with my Galaxy S7 and Es Explorer, and another computer on Windows 10, so it’s probably a bug in OSMC).

So, I’ve decided to change how I access my network shares, so with SSH I have mounted them with:

sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.1/Series\ Matthieu Series\ Matthieu/

Anyway,

I can now access to them in console or GUI but when the playback start, well the screen just stops! To be sure, I have copied directly on the SD card (Sandisk Ultra class 10) some files, with various size and codecs (SD, 720p, h264) and it still freezing :frowning_face:

I have uploaded some logs here:

When I start playing, and if I connect with SSH and execute top, I can see that the CPU is around 6% for a good old It Crowd (180 MB file). One more thing, I am streaming audio to my Bluetooth Speakers because the Video Output is a DLP projector without sound.

I have reverted to “standard” profile, no turbo mode: same thing.

Any help would be greatly appreaciated :slight_smile:

This means those devices are not up to date, and vulnerable from attacks such as WannaCry.

Regarding the freezing: can you still ssh in? How are you powering the Pi?

It does not look like you have the codecs for the Pi. I’d guess that’s your problem.

4

H264 should still play though

5

I made a clean install, so if it’s not included by default, it’s probably the issue.

6

What’s the mediainfo on the file you are trying to play?

Did you pay for the codecs? If so, I thought that they were permanent now.

7

Yes I have access with SSH, and I bought a power plug on Amazon (Aukru Raspberry Pi 3 Alimentation 5V 3000mA)

8

No I did not. But it does freeze for every video that I have tried.

It’s not a debug log so hard to speculate
